10th PIMS slated June 2026

MANILA: The next Philippine International Motor Show (PIMS) has been moved to an earlier date — specifically June next year.

Instead of the usual October schedule, the biennial motoring event’s 10th edition — organized by Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines Incorporated (CAMPI) — will be on June 4-7, 2026 — with the venue still at World Trade Center Metro Manila in Pasay.

The said alteration makes the CAMPI-led activity just one month apart from the Manila International Auto Show (a Woldbex Services International-organized event), which is set for April 9-12, 2026 and will be conducted on the same location.

While the official theme for next year’s program has yet to be shared, CAMPI said preparations are already underway.

Coffee table book launch

Relatedly, the said group recently launched its 30th Anniversary Coffee Table Book, a commemorative publication honoring three decades of unity, innovation, and nation-building within the Philippine automotive industry.

Per CAMPI, the literature serves as a visual and historical chronicle of CAMPI’s journey since its establishment, capturing significant industry developments, regulatory milestones, market growth, and the collective efforts of CAMPI member-brands in shaping mobility for Filipinos.

“This coffee table book is more than just a compilation of images and timelines — it is a celebration of our shared achievements as an industry. Over the past 30 years, CAMPI has witnessed transformative changes in policy, technology, and market behavior. This commemorative book allows us to honor the challenges we overcame, the partnerships we strengthened, and the progress that continues to move the Philippine automotive industry forward,” Gutierrez explained.

Looking ahead, Atty. Gutierrez reaffirmed CAMPI’s dedication to shaping the future of mobility. “As CAMPI grows with more member-brands joining our mission, we remain fully committed to supporting a competitive, innovative, and sustainable automotive market. The road ahead brings new technologies, new mobility solutions, and increased expectations from consumers. That is why CAMPI will continue strengthening its four core pillars — Technology and Innovation, Sustainability, Road Safety, and Industry Development, to ensure that the Philippines is ready for the future of mobility.”
